Labor and Capital.

II cooperation of labor and
capital in profit-sharing is practicable in
operating q railroad, il might be sup
posed practicable in any plant of pro-
ductiye industry. This Undertaking is
now in operation in the Toledo, Ann Ar
Dor and North Michigan Railway Conn
pany, under the Presidency of James NJ.
Ashley. The plan was set before the
stockholders at the annual meeting April
20, and was unanimously adopted. The
Presidents report states that for many
years he has favored the plan of coop
erative labor and profit-sharing, and that
the conditions were now favorable for
putting it in operation
The arrangement of the plan of profit
sharing is not complex. The PROPOSE
ton is ito pay all employees of the COM
pany who have been continuously in its
service five years a dividend as If they
were stockholders, in addition to their
regular wages. The sum of each en-
ploye's wages for the year is to be rated
as so much capital stock in the div
ldends. This is simple and easy of COM
putatiOn. In addition to this there are
provisions for awards of certificates of
paid-up stock to retiring employees after
twenty years service to employees dis
ahled u the service. and to the families
of emyoyes killed in the service. The
Presidents a. gument for the plan is that
the company will gain enough in fidel-
Ity, energy and economy in the service,
by thus giving the workmen an interest,
to give an equivalent for this bonus.
The president proposes also fund for
accident and life insurance for employees.
Thus the profit-sharing form of cooper
alton is now undertaken ON a railroad
whose main line in operation is 175
miles, and which, besides continuation
Of its extension into Northern Michigan,
has several branches.

New York World.


Unwilling testimony of a very inter
esting character was given on Monday
at the trial of the Standard Oil men in
Buffalo. Among the charges against
them is one of conspiring to blow up the
works of a competitor. The testimony
referred to does not relate to this partic-
ular act, but it let's flood of light into
the interior of the method adopted by
these men in doing what they call bus
mess.
A private detective. unexpectedly to
himself, was suddenly placed upon the
stand and required to state that he was
in the employ of the Standard Oil men,
and that he had bribed a laborer in the
establishment Of the competitors to as
certain where the latter secured their
crude oil and to whom they sold their
products. This, taken in connection
with the reputed facilities of the great
corporation FOR striking at the men who
sold the crude oil, and for bringing in
huences to bear on the customers OF 9TH
ers, is strongly confirmatory of the pre-
vailing estimate OF the Standard Oil
Company's policy. 1t shows that their
crOOkedness IL not confined to railroad
control, but that it creeps into every
crevice that offers q promise for advan-
tage:
Prison cells are doing something to
help draw hne between politics and
crime. 1t looks ~ il thew might be
called on to help distinguish the differ
ence between brigandage and business.

Pacific Fruit Grower.

Real estate agents frequently make the
statement, regarding land in Southern
California, that it will grow fruit with
out irrigation. Now this is a dangerous
statement for the buyer to trust to, and
should not be accepted without ample
investigation 1t may safely be asserted
that there are very few tracts of land in
Southern California upon which fruit
can be successfully grown without irri-
cation, and these are mostly in moist sec
tons where a residence is, for other rea-
sons, undesirable. 1t is true that fruit
trees may grow upon such land without
artificial water supply, but the trees will
generally be stunted and the fruit of
doubtful quality. One has to go some
distance to the north to reach latitude
where the fruit grower may safely trust
to the heavens for his irrigation. Such
being the case, the volume and perma-
nance of a water supply becomes of par
amount Importance to the land purchas-
er in this section.

A WOlnx ms Exile.


The administration of justice in Mont
gOmery County promises to return to the
methods Of feudal times, when the power
of a magistrate over the liberty of an Of
fender was only limited by the tender
heart of the dispenser of the law. A
case has recently been revealed wherei n
a Justice of the Peace-no doubt think
ing that he would be performing a good
work if he could induce the offending
person to remove from the neighbOrhOod
-''banished" woman from the limits
of Montgomery County.
In Upper Dublin Township recently
one Mrs. r. Daily tried to prove a charge
of assault and battery upon her iege
lord. She failed before Squire j. w.
Schall, and was herself arranged on a
charge of arson before Squire L. N.
Whitcomb. After furnishing bail to
answer the arson charge Mrs. Daily says
she was sentenced to be taken to the
nearest railroad station, outside of Mont
gomery County and never venture with
in its borders again on pain of instant
arrest" She went away, and, although
she was wanted in NOrristOwn as a wit
ness, she would not come. Finally she
plucked up courage and ventured to
NorristOwn to seek legal advice as to
whether her exile from Montgomery
County was legal, and was greatly de
lighted when she learned that the JUS
tice had no authority to "banish" her
from Montgomery beautiful soil.

There seems to be . universal opposi-
ton among the fruit growers 81 Central
and Northern California, to the system
Of shipments in vogue last year, which
proved as a rule, financially disastrous
to shippers and growers. This result was
largely due to the lack Of unity that ex-
isted among the fruit men and their in
sane efforts to ruin each others markets.
The fruit growers seem determined to
give the plan OF selling the fruit at auc-
ton thorough trial and the result Of the
present seasons work will be watched
with much interest. 1t is Of the high
est importance to the future prosperity
Of the fruit growing industry and the
industry and the encouragement Of de-
sirable immigration that growers should
receive good return for their labor and

ORANGES.
The greater part of Southern Cali
fornia orange crop has now been shipped.
The shipments up to date amount to
about l go cars. The estimate for the
not exceed /, 400. This is accounted for
chiefly by the smaller size of the fruit
this season, also by the very extensive
cutting up of orchards. consequent on
the real estate boom. The quality of the
crop has been good, although latterly
some very poor, smutty fruit has been
shipped. This is very bad policy. Flor
ida will always have lower transporta-
ton rates than California and to COM
pete with her in the Eastern market we
must send better fruit and establish a
high reputation for our produce. Only
the best fruit should be forwarded.
Prices Of oranges, this season, have
been nearly double those which were
obtained year ago. 1t will therefore
be easily seen that the profits of growers
this season must have been enormous.

CnlcaxO IFiDune
In Tennyson's Dream of Fair Wo-
men" there is a sharp contrast of two
types of womanhood which was recalled
last week when the study of Bernhardt's
temperament suggested its exact OPP
posite i'm the world of dramatic art. The
passage is a familiar one, being that in
which the gentle Rosamund laments her
fate:
Would that had been some maiden coarse and
o, me, that I should ever see the light
Those dragon eyes Of angered Eleanor
Do hunt me day and night.
She ceased in tears fallen from hope and trust;
To whom the Egyptian: 20, you tamely died;
You should have clunged TO Finvia's waist and
thrust
The dagger thro' her side"
The counterpart Of Rosamund, it is
hardly necessary to say, is Ellen Terry,
thecounterpart of Cleopatra is Bernhardt.
The English woman is the embodiment Of
everything that is gentle and tender and
yielding in femininity; her French sister
has the subtlety of the Orient. its Ian
guor, its fierceness aud its fatalism. The
former is lovable, as she represents the
best OF what we are ourselves; the latter
is fascinating. as she possesses some OF
that mystic power which is forever COM
ing out of the East, keen in its sympathy
with the absolute principle of evil and
righteousness of life and the desolation
of death. The meadows of the world
have given us the one; the desert has
given us the other.
The stage of the Columbia has seen two
representations, each perfect in art, each
pulsing with feeling, each delivering the
same message freighted with all the pa
thos of womanhoOd; between them lies
the ocean of centuries, and they are as
different as the Saxon and the Semitic
races. Who has ever witnessed the
Ophelia of Ellen Terry and the Camille
Of Sarah Bernhardt can hope to see sur
passed the poetical beauty of the one or
the human truthfulness of the other?
And
We know ON earth and all We need to know.
The ideal elevation of the characters
was the same in both instances, only
that whereas Ellen Terry scared in SYM
pathy to the side of Shakespeare, and
grasped instinctively which had been
instinctively reated, Bernhardt took
Marguerite Gautier from the hands
of Dumas, and, guided by light too dis
tant for the eyes of the dramatist to dis
Germ, led her to the Mount of Transfg-
uration, where the sinful, the gross and
personal fell away, and the mystery Of
human destiny was divinely irradicated.
The spontaneity of Ellen Terry Tin the
character of Ohelia, at least) equaled
the flawless art of Bernhardt, and, if the
latter had not the poetic gift, she had
that Hebraic intensity which is more
spiritual than it is emotional and which
u to sensibility what prophecy is to
poetry.

They are telling a story of former
Dakota legislator, named Wilbur F.

frage while his wife is in favor of it.
On one occasion a woman suffrage
bill was before the House and a vote was
called for. When the clerk called Steele s
name he rose with the dignity of De
mosthenes and began: Mr.. Speaker, /
am sorry that l cannot support this bill,
but" At that moment a well-dressed
woman bent over the gallery rail and
exclaimed in a loud voice, "'W-i-lb-u-r!'
He glanced upward, then turned and
said: Mr.. Speaker, vote aye" The
woman was Steele's wife.

Gov. Drew not being a candidate for
Office, the Times fails to see why the
people should take any interest in his

his structures is only an attempt to turn
public attention from his official and po-
litical acts, to the possible shortcomings
of Gov. Drew in private life, Let the
